Abstract

By utilizing various local resources, sport tourism has the potential to create new businesses or collaborate with community development, and regional sport commissions (SC) are expected to be the driving force for such movement. However, no research has systematically examined the organizational problems of multiple SC. Therefore, this study aims to classify the organizational problems among SC in Japan. To gather data from various organizations, 14 SC were selected for interviews considering the geographical areas, aims, and the size of the city in which the SC is located. A part of SCAT and KJ methods were adopted for analysis, and as a result, eight aspects of organizational problems emerged: Information, Resource, Willingness, Organization, Conception, Accumulation, Acceptance System, and Interaction. Being aware of the general organizational problems enable SC to objectively understand the present situation and to consider possible solutions for any organizational issues.
